How about Ricky Henderson's 1406 stolen bases? #2 is Lou Brock at 928, #3 Billy Hamilton 914, #4 Ty Cobb 897, #5 Tim Raines 808.

The highest active stolen base leader is 34 year old Juan Pierre at 565, then 38 year old Ichiro with 432, then 30 year old Carl Crawford at 427. Even if Crawford stayed healthy and stole 60 bases/season for the next 10 years he'd still fall 400 short of Ricky!

Someone has to AVERAGE 70 SBs a season for TWENTY seasons just to come close to Ricky. Or 100 SBs a season for 14 years. The last person to get 100 SBs was Vince Coleman in '87. So I think Ricky's record is safe for a while

Congrats to ARod on his 23 GS's. I hope he cares less about individual achievements and focuses on his teams goals.
